Product Description
Working to gently resurface while balancing skin and dispelling the dullness, Augustinus Bader’s The Essence with TFC8 preps your skin to perfection and instantly sweeps away dead surface cells to reveal smoother, softer, more luminous skin.
A toner-meets-chemical exfoliant-meets-hydrating essence, this cutting-edge formula boasts a phenomenal buffet of balancing, brightening ingredients – including the proprietary TFC8 Complex – to supplement skin’s renewal processes. With vitamins A, B, C and E alongside phytic acid to nourish and soften, this is also enriched with gluconolactone (a poly-hydroxy acid that sloughs away debris) and pore-purging salicylic acid to combat congestion for beautifully clear – not to mention a practically poreless – complexion. Wasabi ferment and white peony flower protect from pollution, while hyaluronic acid promotes moisture levels to subtly lessen the depth of fine lines and leave skin with a ‘spring’ in its step. It’s great for preparing your skin to reap more of The Cream’s many benefits.
After cleansing, use a cotton pad to apply as desired to clean, dry skin morning and night.
Allow The Essence to penetrate the skin for a few moments before applying The Cream or The Cream Rich.

Love
I really love using it together with their cream. It enhances the cream’s effect and helps reduce how much product I need to use

The Essence
The essence has a rich consistency; it provides excellent hydration and exfoliates very gently and delicately. It worked perfectly for mature, dry, and reactive skin.

Fine
Got a travel size in a CB edit, and it really hasnt done much for my skin based on current use. I like the texture and ingredient list, but for the price point i wouldnt recommend it to others with quite healthy and strong skin barriers.

Nice
This product is great because it combines an exfoliator and a toner to make my skin look much brighter and smoother. I love that it is gentle enough to use every day and it helps to clear my pores without making my face feel dry.

good toner but overpriced
tried the toner in the edit, it was only 7 ml. To be honest, I didnt see much difference, the consistency is nice but I feel that Korean toners can do just as good of a job for 1/4 of the price

I LOVE it
Absolutely extraordinary essence. First of all, the consistency is perfect: it’s not as fluid as your usual tonic or essence, which makes its application way easier and less wasteful. It feels like applying a light serum, and the skin feels just as hydrated and supple as if you actually had applied a serum. I also love the fact that has a low concentration of chemical exfoliants that softly, but daily, improve the texture of the skin. This is for sure a keeper. It also lasts longer than the same amount of a more regular tonic/essence. Finally, it has fermented components, which are awesome for the skin but tend to give a funky smell (thinking about SK-IIs essence, which is unbearably stinky for me): the smell is much milder in this product, and totally bearable.

Very hydrating
Tried the Rich Cream and loved it and love the technology of TFC 8. Use the Cream at night and in the essence in the morning to get the TFC8 2 times a day. Only need a few drops so the bottle will last a long time. Will buy again!

A real luxury!
Texture is not too light or heavy. Easy to apply and doesn't smell strong. The price is really expensive but a good try once there is some discount on it. Only using it for a week and haven't seen visible result yet.
